I dont like the slash because I dont like slashing, but if he's out to play the puck then you should be able to lay him out like any other player.
If he's futzing around with the puck behind his net, you should be allowed to clear him out and take it.
He gets to be special. When he's in his Blue Paint. Outside of that? Open Season.

It was such a light tap that if they would have called Backlund on it, they would have had to call Skinner on the embellishment as well. It was just a warning to the Oilers that if you mess with our goalie, we can do the same.
